Great Great Room!

We had everything we needed. The stash of beach toys and equipment was much appreciated. The rental was spotlessly clean, all linens fluffy and beds comfortable, including the bunks. We found the floor plan a little odd, but love love loved the great room and spent every evening playing games around the big table and in the sitting area. The second floor master is truly enormous, both masters have spa bathrooms. The owner was very helpful, responding to all inquiries before and during the rental courteously and rapidly. The walk to the beach was easy. Younger members of our party loved the two pools, which were diagonally across the street from the house.

We had 17 people and had more than enough room. Don was GREAT to deal with and even mailed something back that we had left at no charge to us.

Great rental, although we noticed some spindles on the front balcony off the kitchen that are hanging loose. We had toddlers who loved to go out on the balcony with us and we thought this was a terrible safety problem. Could use a little updating, appliances are getting pretty old. Some of the bedrooms could use some room darkening curtains because that sun comes in bright. Overall it was very nice!

The house was clean and well maintained. Don was very kind and responsive - wonderful to work with. But the best part of this house is the close proximity to both beach and pool. It was such an easy walk, even with infants and toddlers. The neighborhood is great, and our family booked another house nearby, as well as a condo across the street, allowing us all to be in close proximity to each other. The one note that I would make that would've been helpful for planning is that one the double bedrooms is only accessible through the bunkroom - we were able to work with this as we are a close knit family, but it could be an issue for a different group if the rooms were heavily loaded. Overall, a wonderful vacation and all families left very satisfied!!!

Beautiful house that was just steps away from the beach! We needed a casual get-a-way and it was everything we wanted and more. Close to Fort Morgan, a really neat ferry, restaurants, just a few miles from shops.

Great for families or like our visit - a peaceful off season vacation!

Location

Gulf Shores, AL, USA

Points of View is a beautiful, well-appointed home located in the exclusive 35 home private Gulf-side neighborhood, Heritage Shores. We are uniquely situated between the dazzling white sands of the Gulf of Mexico and the idyllic views of Mobile Bay, and are just steps away from the beach. Nearby are world class golf courses, Bon Secour Nature Preserve, Fort Morgan (175 year old fort played the central role in the Battle of Mobile Bay during the War Between the States, and was in active duty during the Spanish American War and World Wars I and II), and lots of shopping. Many great restaurants featuring local favorites are nearby.
